How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Widespread crazing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cranbrook Common
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
